Edward our son at Westminster, the twenty-eighth day of March in the twenty-eighth year of our Reign. And whereas no offendor of what kinde soever is exempted from the pceedings to be used and punishments to be inflicted by the Lawes and Statutes of this your Realme, Neverthelesse of late tyme divers Comissions under your Majesties great Seale have issued forth, by which certaine persons have been assigned and appointed Comissioners with power and authoritie to proceed within the land according to the Justice of Martiall Lawe against such Souldiers or Marriners or other dissolute persons joyning with them as should comitt any murther robbery felony mutiny or other outrage or misdemeanor whatsoever, and by such sumary course and order as is agreeable to Martiall Lawe and as is used in Armies in tyme of warr to proceed to the tryall and condemnacion of such offenders, and them to cause to be executed and putt to death according to the Lawe Martiall. By pretext whereof some of your Majesties Subjects have been by some of the said Comissioners put to death, when and where, if by the Lawes and Statuts of the land they had deserved death, by the same Lawes and Statuts alsoe they might and by no other ought to have byn judged and executed. And alsoe sundrie greivous offendors by colour thereof clayming an exempcion have escaped the punishments due to them by the Lawes and Statutes of this your Realme, by reason that divers of your Officers and ministers of Justic have unjustlie refused or forborne to proceed against such Offendors according to the same Lawes and Statutes uppon pretence that the said offendors were punishable onelie by Martiall law and by authoritie of such Comissions as aforesaid. Which Comissions and all other of like nature are wholly and directlie contrary to the said Lawes and Statutes of this your Realme. And that the aforesaid Comissions for proceeding by Martiall Lawe may be revoked and annulled. And that hereafter no Comissions of like nature may issue forth to any person or persons whatsoever to be executed as aforesaid, lest by colour of them any of your Majesties Subjects be destroyed or put to death contrary to the Lawes and Franchise of the Land. All which they most humblie pray of your most Excellent Majestie as their Rightes and Liberties according to the Lawes and Statutes of this Realme, And that your Majestie would alsoe vouchsafe to declare that the Awards doings and proceedings to the prejudice of your people in any of the premisses shall not be drawen hereafter into consequence or example.

The validity of any proceedings of the Parliament is not affected by the disqualification of any person from being a member of the Parliament or from being a member for the constituency or region for which he purports to sit. Any person who claims that a person purporting to be a member of the Parliament is disqualified or has been disqualified at any time since being returned may apply to the Court of Session for a declarator to that effect. An application in respect of any person may be made whether the grounds on which it is made are alleged to have subsisted when the person was returned or to have arisen subsequently. In this section "disqualified" means disqualified from being a member of the Parliament or from being a member for the constituency or region for which the person concerned purports to sit. The Parliament shall, following a general election, elect from among its members a Presiding Officer and two deputies. The Parliament may, at any time, elect from among its members one or more additional deputies. A person elected Presiding Officer or deputy shall hold office until the conclusion of the next election for Presiding Officer under subsection (1) unless he previously resigns, ceases to be a member of the Parliament otherwise than by virtue of a dissolution or is removed from office by resolution of the Parliament. But standing orders may make provision for additional deputies to hold office for a shorter time than provided by subsection (2). If the Presiding Officer or a deputy elected under subsection (1) ceases to hold office before the Parliament is dissolved, the Parliament shall elect another from among its members to fill his place. The Presiding Officer may (subject to standing orders) authorise any deputy to exercise functions on his behalf. Standing orders may include provision as to the participation (including voting) of the Presiding Officer and deputies in the proceedings of the Parliament. The validity of any act of the Presiding Officer or a deputy is not affected by any defect in his election. The Clerk shall be appointed by the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body (established under section 21). The Clerk may authorise any Assistant Clerk or other member of the staff of the Parliament to exercise functions on his behalf. There shall be a body corporate to be known as "The Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body" (referred to in this Act as the Parliamentary corporation) to perform the functions conferred on the corporation by virtue of this Act or any other enactment. Any property or liabilities acquired or incurred in relation to matters within the general responsibility of the corporation to which (apart from this subsection) the Parliament would be entitled or subject shall be treated for all purposes as property or (as the case may be) liabilities of the corporation. Any expenses of the corporation shall be payable out of the Scottish Consolidated Fund. Any sums received by the corporation shall be paid into that Fund, subject to any provision made by or under an Act of the Scottish Parliament for the disposal of or accounting for such sums. Schedule 2 (which makes further provision about the corporation) shall have effect. Schedule 3 (which makes provision as to how certain matters are to be dealt with by standing orders) shall have effect. Subject to subsection (3), the Parliament may impose such a requirement on a person outside Scotland only in connection with the discharge by him of- a. In relation to the exercise of functions of a Minister of the Crown, the Parliament may not impose such a requirement on- a. But the Parliament may not impose such a requirement in pursuance of subsection (3) in connection with the exercise of functions which are exercisable- a. Subsection (4)(b) does not prevent the Parliament imposing such a requirement in connection with the exercise of functions which do not relate to reserved matters. Where all the functions of a body relate to reserved matters, the Parliament may not impose such a requirement on any person in connection with the discharge by him of those functions. Such a requirement may be imposed by a committee or sub-committee of the Parliament only if the committee or sub-committee is expressly authorised to do so (whether by standing orders or otherwise). A person is not obliged under this section to answer any question or produce any document which he would be entitled to refuse to answer or produce in proceedings in a court in Scotland. A procurator fiscal is not obliged under this section to answer any question or produce any document concerning the operation of the system of criminal prosecution in any particular case if the Lord Advocate- a. A requirement under section 23 shall be imposed by the Clerk giving the person in question notice in writing specifying- a. It is a defence for a person charged with an offence under subsection (1)(a), (b) or (d) to prove that he had a reasonable excuse for the refusal or failure. Where an offence under this section which has been committed by a body corporate is proved to have been committed with the consent or connivance of, or to be attributable to any neglect on the part of- a. The Presiding Officer or such other person as may be authorised by standing orders may- a. Any person who refuses to take an oath when required to do so under subsection (1)(b) is guilty of an offence. Subsection (4) of section 25 applies to an offence under subsection (2) as it applies to an offence under that section. Standing orders may provide for the payment of allowances and expenses to persons- a. For the purposes of sections 23 to 25 and this section, a person shall be taken to comply with a requirement to produce a document if he produces a copy of, or an extract of the relevant part of, the document. If the Lord Advocate or the Solicitor General for Scotland is not a member of the Parliament- a. The Lord Advocate or the Solicitor General for Scotland may, in any proceedings of the Parliament, decline to answer any question or produce any document relating to the operation of the system of criminal prosecution in any particular case if he considers that answering the question or producing the document- a. Subject to section 29, the Parliament may make laws, to be known as Acts of the Scottish Parliament. Proposed Acts of the Scottish Parliament shall be known as Bills; and a Bill shall become an Act of the Scottish Parliament when it has been passed by the Parliament and has received Royal Assent. The date of Royal Assent shall be written on the Act of the Scottish Parliament by the Clerk, and shall form part of the Act. The validity of an Act of the Scottish Parliament is not affected by any invalidity in the proceedings of the Parliament leading to its enactment. This section does not affect the power of the Parliament of the United Kingdom to make laws for Scotland. An Act of the Scottish Parliament is not law so far as any provision of the Act is outside the legislative competence of the Parliament. For the purposes of this section, the question whether a provision of an Act of the Scottish Parliament relates to a reserved matter is to be determined, subject to subsection (4), by reference to the purpose of the provision, having regard (among other things) to its effect in all the circumstances. Her Majesty may by Order in Council make any modifications of Schedule 4 or 5 which She considers necessary or expedient. Her Majesty may by Order in Council specify functions which are to be treated, for such purposes of this Act as may be specified, as being, or as not being, functions which are exercisable in or as regards Scotland. Where the effect of the alteration is that a provision of an Act of the Scottish Parliament ceases to be within the legislative competence of the Parliament, the provision does not for that reason cease to have effect (unless an enactment provides otherwise). A person in charge of a Bill shall, on or before introduction of the Bill in the Parliament, state that in his view the provisions of the Bill would be within the legislative competence of the Parliament. The Presiding Officer shall, on or before the introduction of a Bill in the Parliament, decide whether or not in his view the provisions of the Bill would be within the legislative competence of the Parliament and state his decision. The form of any statement, and the manner in which it is to be made, shall be determined under standing orders, and standing orders may provide for any statement to be published. The Presiding Officer shall not submit a Bill for Royal Assent at any time when- a. The Presiding Officer shall not submit a Bill in its unamended form for Royal Assent if- a. The Advocate General, the Lord Advocate or the Attorney General may refer the question of whether a Bill or any provision of a Bill would be within the legislative competence of the Parliament to the Supreme Court for decision. Subject to subsection (3), he may make a reference in relation to a Bill at any time during- a.

generic rosuvastatin 10 mg with mastercard

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy cholesterol levels us generic 10mg rosuvastatin free shipping, although typically presenting with lobar intracerebral hemorrhage cholesterol over 400 generic rosuvastatin 10 mg fast delivery, may cholesterol levels goals cheap rosuvastatin 10 mg amex, at times cholesterol medication is bad for you cheap rosuvastatin 10mg without prescription, present with a gradually progressive dementia due to miliary microbleeds. Depression in the elderly may manifest with prominent cognitive deficits and thus enters the differential. Treatment In addition to the routine environmental measures discussed in Section 5. Agents that may reduce the risk of the disease include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and, possibly, estrogen replacement therapy. It is not clear whether, and to whom, these treatments should be recommended, if at all; certainly in the case of ibuprofen, the risks may well outweigh any putative benefits. Agents capable of causing a modest symptomatic improvement include the acetylcholinesterase inhibitors donepezil (Feldman et al. As noted above, there is a correlation between the loss of cholinergic neurons in the nucleus basalis of Meynert and memory loss, and it is probably by partly restoring cholinergic tone that the acetylcholinesterase inhibitors exert their therapeutic effect. Importantly, with treatment with a cholinesterase inhibitor or memantine, one sees not only some cognitive improvement but also some improvement in other clinical features, such as mood changes and, in some cases, delusions or hallucinations. The optimum strategy with regard to these medications has not as yet been established. In my opinion it is reasonable to begin with a cholinesterase inhibitor, for example donepezil, and then monitor for a matter of months; if there has been some improvement but, as is usually the case, there is room for further improvement, memantine may then be added. The place of d-cycloserine and Gingko biloba has simply not been elucidated; however, during a time of relative clinical stability, one may consider adding one of these. Other symptoms that may respond to pharmacologic treatment include depression, insomnia, apathy, agitation, and delusions and hallucinations. Insomnia may, of course, be part of a depressive syndrome and, as such, may eventually respond to treatment with an antidepressant; in cases in which a hypnotic is required, consideration may be given to melatonin or zolpidem. Although quetiapine has been associated with sedation, in my experience this agent, if started at a low dose. With regard to the use of antipsychotics, concern has been raised that they may accelerate cognitive decline; however, at least in the case of risperidone, this does not appear to be the case (Livingston et al. Delusions and hallucinations, whether accompanied by agitation or not, may respond to the same antipsychotics as used for agitation; however, as with all symptoms, one must be sure that these delusions or hallucinations are sufficiently troubling to warrant the risk attendant on the use of antipsychotics. Clinical features the onset is gradual and insidious, typically occurring in the fourth through the seventh decades; onsets as young as 21 (Lowenberg et al. In most cases, the presentation is with a personality change, typically of the frontal lobe type, with disinhibition, coarsening of behavior, and perseveration (Bouton 1940; Ferraro and Jervis 1936; Litvan et al. Eventually, cognitive deficits appear, such as short-term memory loss, concreteness, and difficulty with calculations; in many cases an aphasia, typically of the expressive type, will supervene, and, in a small minority, seizures may occur. Interestingly, even when the temporal lobes are very hard hit, the posterior two-thirds of the superior temporal gyrus is generally spared, often to a remarkable degree, as illustrated in Figure 8. Although in most cases both the frontal and the temporal lobes are clearly affected, in a minority only one lobe will be macroscopically abnormal (Sjorgen et al. Pick cells (large, ballooned neurons) and Pick bodies (rounded or oval argentophilic intracytoplasmic inclusions) may be seen in affected areas; the Pick bodies are composed of neurofilaments that are p 08. The syndrome itself, as noted below, is characterized initially by a personality change, with, in most cases, the eventual development of a dementia. Frontotemporal dementia, among the neurodegenerative disorders, is a relatively common cause of dementia. Most of these familial cases are associated with mutations in the tau gene (Bronner et al. The frontal variant, as might be expected, is characterized by the frontal lobe syndrome, with varying mixtures of disinhibition, mood changes, perseveration, and overall coarsening of behavior; some patients may become quite gluttonous and some will show a pronounced taste for sweets. In some cases the environmental dependency syndrome may occur; as discussed in Section 4. Over time, and well after the personality change has become established, a dementia supervenes, which, however, may remain relatively mild. Judgment and abstract thinking fail, and eventually there may be amnestic features. Tumors of the frontal or temporal lobes may mimic these disorders, but are immediately identified by imaging. Uncommonly, frontotemporal dementia may present with an expressive aphasia (Bak et al. Tumors of the frontal or temporal lobes may cause a similar presentation but are immediately identified on imaging. When frontotemporal dementia is accompanied by parkinsonism, the possibility of diffuse Lewy body disease may be raised. Clinical features preceding the development of parkinsonism, however, enable a differential: in frontotemporal dementia one sees a personality change, whereas in diffuse Lewy body disease one sees a dementia marked by visual hallucinations and confusional episodes. Treatment There are no well-established symptomatic treatments specific for frontotemporal dementia: one open study supported the use of rivastigmine (Moretti et al. Given that the personality change is generally the focus of treatment, consideration may be given to carbamazepine or a second-generation antipsychotic, as discussed in Section 7. Dementia, as noted, is often mild, and treatment considerations are discussed in Section 5. Similar, although less severe, changes may be seen in the insula, cingulate cortex, hippocampus, basal ganglia, substantia nigra, and, in some, anterior horn cells. In some cases these inclusions are tau positive, whereas in others they are tau negative but ubiquitin positive. Autosomal dominant cases may be divided into those that have tau-positive inclusions and those that have inclusions which are tau negative but ubiquitin positive. Differential diagnosis When, as is typically the case, frontotemporal dementia presents with a personality change, it may not be possible, Clinical features Onset is gradual, most patients falling ill between the ages of 40 and 70 years. Eventually, with involvement of both upper and lower neurons, one finds the distinctive combination of brisk deep tendon reflexes with atrophic muscular weakness and fasciculations. With involvement of the lower motor neurons in the cranial nerve nuclei, the tongue may become atrophic and demonstrate fasciculation. Subsequent to the onset of the upper and lower motor neuron symptoms, a dementia may gradually appear in up to one-quarter of all patients, and in a significant minority of others there will be a cognitive decrement of less severe degree, characterized by poor short-term memory and judgment (Rippon et al. Although most patients present with a combination of upper and lower motor neuron signs and symptoms, in a small minority of cases the presentation will be heavily weighted toward either the upper motor neuron (producing a syndrome known as primary lateral sclerosis) or the lower motor neuron (producing progressive muscular atrophy). Progressive muscular atrophy, in contrast, presents with progressive weakness, atrophy, and fasciculations. In most cases, patients with progressive lateral sclerosis or progressive muscular atrophy go on to develop clear clinical evidence of involvement of both upper and motor neurons. Electromyography typically reveals evidence of denervation, and nerve condition velocity studies are typically normal. Concurrent with the degeneration of the upper motor neurons, Wallerian degeneration leads to a thinning of both the corticospinal and corticobulbar tracts, and with degeneration of the anterior horn cells, there is subsequent atrophy of the ventral roots. Cognitive deficits reflect cell loss in the frontal and temporal cortices (Wilson et al. In remaining cells one typically finds tau-negative, unbiquitinpositive inclusions. Primary lateral sclerosis may be mimicked by multiple sclerosis, adrenoleukodystrophy, hereditary spastic paraplegia, and vitamin B12 deficiency. Consideration may also be given to various peripheral motor neuropathies; however, these are immediately identified on nerve conduction velocity studies. Furthermore, of patients treated with levodopa or direct-acting dopaminergics, a majority will develop significant neuropsychiatric side-effects, most notably visual hallucinations. As just noted, the disease initially manifests with parkinsonism (Hoehn and Yahr 1967; Hughes et al. Over time, the opposite side becomes involved, and eventually all four limbs are affected.

Canine spirocercosis: Clinical, diagnostic, pathologic and epidemiologic characteristics. A cranial head-stage implant was maintained on this animal for 4 years, which was associated with chronic purulent discharge. This purulent discharge was treated regularly with mechanical flushing and debridement, as well as anti-microbial therapy (based on routine culture and sensitivity results). No clinical signs were noted at the end of study period, although a physical examination just prior to barbiturate euthanasia revealed an enlarged liver upon abdominal palpation. Gross Pathologic Findings: this macaque was presented dead in good body condition. A thick, viscous, pale green to pale yellow, opaque, odoriferous film of purulent material (biofilm) was noted in the subcutaneous tissues underneath the cranial headstage implant. Laboratory Results: Mixed bacteria were isolated from the biofilm under the cranial headstage implant, including Staphylococcus spp. These were all resistant to most antimicrobials except enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin. There is extensive effacement of normal hepatic lobular architecture due to the presence of massive amounts of amorphous, homogenous sheets of eosinophilic hyaline acellular material that appears to originate in and expand the space of Disse. This material is congophilic and displays bright-green birefringence when viewed under polarized light. Multifocally and extensively, the amyloid deposits in the space of Disse often expand outward to involve adjacent sinusoidal spaces (resulting loss of the sinusoidal lumen), and the amount of amyloid present results in massive to total loss of normal hepatocytes and hepatic lobular architecture, with remaining hepatocytes appearing sparse, compacted/atrophied, and displaced into thin, often tortuous hepatic cords. Amyloidosis refers to human and animal diseases that are characterized by the extracellular deposition of amyloid in various tissues, often resulting in dysfunction of compromised organs. P r i m a r y a m y l o i d o s i s (A L), characterized by the deposition of immunoglobulin light chain that is overproduced by plasma cell/B-cell dyscrasias. Liver, rhesus macaque: Large areas of amyloid surround and replace hepatic parenchyma. This has been reported in rhesus macaques, in association with enterocolitis (usually associated with Shigella spp. This has been documented in cynomolgus macaques 5,16 and Celebes-crested macaques,5 and provide a nonhuman primate model for diabetes mellitus research. For example, amyloidosis involving the gastrointestinal tract or liver can present similarly with weight loss due to hypoproteinemia (via protein-losing enteropathy and decreased hepatic function respectively). Liver, rhesus macaque: Amyloid fills the space of Disse between hepatocytes (blue arrows) and endothelial cells (green arrows). Liver, rhesus macaque: Material within the space of Disse is congophilic and displays bright-green birefringence when viewed under polarized light. Noninvasive, antemortem diagnosis of secondary/ reactive amyloidosis in macaques is difficult. Clinical biochemistry studies of macaques with amyloidosis have consistently revealed significant elevations in -glutamyl transferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase, and significant decreases in total protein and albumin. In severely affected animals however, gross examination may reveal enlarged livers that are often described as pale, friable to firm, and waxy; prominent white pulp areas on the cut surfaces of spleens; or thickened gastrointestinal mucosa. Chronically-affected animals may also display emaciation associated with weight loss. Histopathology of tissues obtained as biopsy specimens or from necropsy is the traditional gold standard for diagnosis of secondary/reactive amyloidosis. Amyloid appears as amorphous, acellular, homogenous eosinophilic extracellular material on H&E sections, and occurs most prominently in the space of Disse in the liver, the follicular white pulp areas in the spleen, the lamina propria of the gastrointestinal tract, the medullary interstitium of the kidneys, and the corticomedullary junction of the adrenal glands. We believe that the case of hepatic amyloidosis presented here represents severe localized secondary/reactive amyloidosis in the liver. Observable amyloid deposition was not noted in all other tissues examined histologically. The cause of the amyloidosis was most likely the chronic infection of the subcutaneous tissues under the cranial head-stage implant ("periimplantitis") in this macaque, which is a common cause of secondary/reactive amyloidosis in macaques observed in our institution. Conference Comment: the contributor provides an excellent overview of amyloidosis with emphasis on the variety of manifestations in nonhuman primates. This case is an exceptional example of hepatic amyloidosis, as it nicely illustrates the expansion of the perisinusoidal space with amyloid. This area, known as the space of Disse, is the narrow space between the plates of hepatocytes and sinusoidal lining cells where amyloid is known to accumulate within the liver. Conference participants noted the severity of the lesion in this case and were amazed as to the lack of clinical signs in this animal.

Diagnosis and clinical signs of feline infectious peritonitis in the central nervous system. Performances of different diagnostic tests for feline infectious peritonitis in challenging clinical cases. Clinical, cerebrospinal fluid, and histological data from twenty-seven cats with primary inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. Sharif S, Suri Arshad S, Hair-Bejo M, Rahman Omar A, Allaudin Zeenathul N, Alazawy A. Inflammatory cerebrospinal fluid analysis in cats: Clinical diagnosis and outcome. Clinicopathological findings and disease staging of feline infectious peritonitis: 51 cases from 2003 to 2009 in Taiwan. History: the dog had been bitten on the left femoral skin, and a 12 x 16 mm dermal mass formed at first in the region. He was fitted with an Elizabethan collar to prevent self-trauma and was topically treated with antibiotics and steroids with no clinical improvement. Laboratory Results: None Histopathologic Description: the multiple variably sized masses are present in the dermis and subcutis, with multiple small masses around large masses. Various-sized swollen peripheral nerve fascicles are observed in each mass, with perineurial hyperplasia. Swollen nerve fascicles in each mass consist of thin, unmyelinated nerves with hypertrophic Schwann cells and a thickened perineurium. Each nerve fascicle consisted of thin to unmyelinated nerve fibers, including axons and Schwann cells. Axons in swollen nerve fascicles and hyperplastic perineurium had Schwann cells as well as normal nerve fibers, suggesting a non11 neoplastic lesion. The lack of proliferative activity also indicated that our case was non-neoplastic. The histological features resembled traumatic neuroma except swollen large-sized nerve fascicles and perineurial hyperplasia. With clinical findings and histological features, it was suggested that peripheral nerves of affected area were the result of self-inflicted injury. Traumatic neuroma is a reactive and nonneoplastic proliferative nerve disease to injury or surgery at the proximal end of an injured peripheral nerve. The lesion is commonly seen in the interdigital plantar nerve of third and fourth toes in women. As the lesion progresses, the fibrosis becomes marked and envelops the epineurium and perineurium in a concentric fashion and even extends into the surrounding tissue. Schwannoma or neurofibroma with plexiform pattern most closely resembled the present case. Haired skin, dog: this tiled image shows the extent of a neuroma that arose over two years following a dog bite at the site. The mass is composed of clusters of large caliber nerve fibers surrounded by fibrous connective tissue. Schwannoma is composed of mainly Schwann cells with characteristic patterns and containing few axons. Neurofibroma consists of a mixture of Schwann cells, axons and fibroblasts, and the number of axons is very low.
